Nothing Derails The Endorsement Train

Neither major storm nor weekend work schedules could prevent John Spencer’s U.S. Senate campaign from announcing 15 new endorsements by Conservative Party leaders.

The show of supportÂ is considerableÂ -Â the former YonkersÂ mayor’s campaign says heÂ now has the backing of six of the Conservative party’s stateÂ committee vice chairs, six of its eight regional vice chairs and 34 county chairs – but perhaps not entirely necessary.Â

State Conservative Party Chairman Mike LongÂ has already said he’ll propose to the party executive committee Monday that the Conservative lineÂ go to Spencer.Â

Conservative leaders are scheduled to kick off a two-day meetingÂ today in AlbanyÂ – a plan Long said Saturday would not be hampered by the weather, although attendance might be lower than expected. Â
